Hi Jon - you are so lucky to have places like this to take pictures of. I'll assume it is an older church with lots of history behind it. One thing you may want to try is to move a bit closer to the church where you would still have the building in view but get more of the landscape too. However, since this challenge is now over, it would really be interesting to see more pics of the church!
Jon - what a cool 'rose window' on that old church. very cool stuff. I like the perspective with the church off set to the far left a lot , but I think your image was taken down due to the very bright sky and the softness. A slightly lower angle and a higher horizon (to get it away from dead center) could really have boosted this one a bunch.
Cheers!

Here is my quick edit on the shot you entered. I moved the horizon up by cropping down, I used noise ninja to sharpen (USM) and smooth out the sky at the same time, and I adjusted the colors a bit - to bring up the red and yellow to add more punch...
Is this church no longer used? (very sad seeing abandoned buildings if so) It is very pretty against the green, and I like the natural framing. Very pretty image.
